Conversations is a great XMPP client for Android. It's far better and lighter than the Matrix client for Android. On the desktop, we have Gajim, Pidgin and Dino. None of these are as good as Conversations, but they're slowly improving. I think the XMPP protocol supports audio/video calls, but I have never actually got it working on any of the clients. Maybe, client implementations aren't ready yet.
A lot of FSFTN, FSMK, FSHM people are on Matrix. I don't very much like Matrix, but login occasionally to keep in touch with people. I prefer XMPP for IM.

arunisaacI'm not buying this idea among the left that racism is somehow caused by capitalism. Sure, the capitalist does benefit from disunity among the workers and therefore their reduced bargaining power. Capitalism benefits from racism, but to say that it causes it, is going too far. I believe that racism has a life of its own, and it stems from humans feeling threatened by those unlike them. In the world as it is now, I can hardly imagine a white workers' movement being inclusive or considerate about us black and brown folk.
To all scientists: is there a good alternative to Google Scholar? A good search engine indexing (most to all) papers published at good conferences and journals?
I've used it a couple of times today, and it was great.
* Uses OpenStreetMap data * Service provided by HeiGIT * Doesn't spy on you * Maps look great * Effective routes * Share with friends * Add your own tracks * Export to GPX plus others * Elevation profile
Yes, performance is still an issue. But, I was able to tolerate the freezes enough to finish playing a few games. Perhaps we should stick to playing small maps for now.
நேராகத் தோன்றும் அம்பு, கொலைச் செயல் புரியும். வளைந்து தோன்றும் யாழ், இசை, இன்பம் பயக்கும். அது போலவே மக்களின் பண்புகளையும் அவர்களது செயலால் மட்டுமே உணர்ந்து கொள்ள வேண்டும்.
English translation:
Cruel is the arrow straight, the crooked lute is sweet, Judge by their deeds the many forms of men you meet.
